A more firm grip on their external websites

SSL certificates should be renewed on time to eliminate the risk of websites being unavailable.

How Royal Friesland Campina uses Nixon
In a 10-week onboarding period we helped Royal FrieslandCampina with the integration of their existing DNS and domain partner. We automated the detection of new web-applications. Royal FrieslandCampina works with a central team and uses a companywide ITSM solution. Work originating from the findings in the Nixon Platform. Now they can delegate to whoever is responsible. By syncing the CMDB / ITSM solution we are helping with the integration of the Nixon Platform with ServiceNow.
- Eliminating the manual checks of 200+ websites.
- Streamline their workflow with automatic scans with relevant findings.
- Discovering hidden subdomain vulnerabilities.
With the help of the Nixon Platform we finally have a complete, realtime overview of our all our websites and domains. The automated smart scanners save us hours of work and make sure we are directly notified when our compliance framework is not implemented correctly.
